Comment on A New Stack for 2016: Getting Started with React, ES6 and Webpack by edspencer https://edspencer.net/2016/03/20/a-new-stack-for-2016-getting-started-with-react-es6-and-webpack/comment-page-1/#comment-29942
Mon, 28 Mar 2016 23:30:07 +0000http://edspencer.net/?p=962#comment-29942No I don’t consider it a direct competitor to Ext JS – what I’ve described above is a small and simple starting point for a fully custom UI; it has none of the components or app architecture offered by Ext JS.

In terms of what component library I’d suggest running on top of React, I’m afraid I don’t have a great answer for you. I’ve been happy enough just creating my own components as needed, but I agree this is not something everyone will be happy doing. Might be a gap in the market there…

Do consider this development stack a competitor to Ext JS? I think most developers would be better served by using Ext JS especially if building complex desktop style applications which rely on a large number components which Ext JS provides out of the box.

What component library would you use with the development stack that you propose? I don’t think you’d expect others to build these components from scratch. I think you know very well that this would be a major effort.

Secondly, would is your take on Angular 2 vs React?

Tue, 22 Mar 2016 15:24:13 +0000http://edspencer.net/?p=962#comment-29906It sounds like you’re trying to get hot reloading working. I banged my head against that wall for many hours before finally giving up (having webpack-dev-server running alongside an existing Express backend seems possible but no matter what I did I could not achieve it). The nearest thing I did find was https://github.com/gaearon/react-hot-boilerplate, which did work for me (though again I could not get it to function in tandem with my existing Node backend).

Tue, 22 Mar 2016 04:15:38 +0000http://edspencer.net/?p=962#comment-29900I actually moved on from C3 to Palo Alto Networks a couple of months back. Last I knew C3 was not yet using React, but we do use it for one of our new products at PAN (though several of our products still use Ext JS).

There are several more posts lined up in various stages of completion 🙂 Next up is a post about how to set up a decent React component testing stack (harder than it should be), followed by a few posts on Redux.

As I know you did self JS framework in company on base of JQuery and less.
Did you switch to ReactJS?
Could you please write more about current stack if possible? 🙂

Sun, 20 Mar 2016 04:55:38 +0000http://edspencer.net/?p=962#comment-29892In addition to that, I would also argue that TypeScript as an ES6 transpiler is an excellent alternative to Babel. It’s straightforward to use (one npm package) and the tooling is fabulous (VS Code, tslint, …). It’s perfectly fine to treat TypeScript as a full-featured and powerful ES6 transpiler and ignore everything else (type annotation etc).

Comment on git: what to do if you commit to no branch by edspencer https://edspencer.net/2009/10/28/git-what-to-do-if-you-commit-to-no-branch/comment-page-1/#comment-29891
Sun, 20 Mar 2016 03:37:23 +0000http://edspencer.net/?p=311#comment-29891@WL and @mileszhou look up git reflog – it is a way to find all of the SHAs for all of your commits – even if you think you’ve lost them!
